When visiting the Little Saigon area I was told to give Lily's Bakery a try and I did. Since Vietnamese sandwiches and Iced coffees are my thing. I ordered the Banh Mi in chicken. Between the white bread there's no house mayo and the chicken pieces aren't marinated. You do get a decent portion of pickled carrots, daikon and cucumbers. Overall the sandwich tasted average and plain unless you have condiments handy to add flavor. As for their Vietnamese Iced Coffee its different, it's like drinking French vanilla latte. I don't think the Banh Mi is their specialty however, by looking at the Yelp photos I see more beignets and pastries than anything else. So I probably ordered the wrong thing. Inside the bakery they do offer lots of desserts and they look delicious, maybe the next time I will not ignore them. read more

The place is located inside a plaza connected with other stores. Parking was plentiful and spacious. I love how clean the place is. They have a shaded area for seating outside the store. The cashier space was a little cramped when there are lots of customers but it's nothing too bad. The service was friendly as well. The beignets were light, fluffy, and airy! Love it! Minus one star for their iced coffee. It was too sweet! read more

Today was Mardi Gras. My family hasn't lived in a town that celebrates Mardi Gras for years, but every year we celebrate as a family with food and treats from home. We just moved to HB, and I looked on Yelp for a place to find beignets for today. Lily's Bakery did not disappoint! The beignets were a lovely reminder of home, and the owners were so incredibly kind! They gave us small coconut custards just as a thank you for shopping with them. We will definitely be back again! read more

I'm not a huge coffee person, but their Vietnamese coffee is spot on and very strong! A little pricier than other places in the area, but better quality for sure. Their beignets are amazing!! Go early in the morning if you want them hot, fresh, and slightly crispy. The two times I've gotten the beignets, they just stacked them then sprinkled powdered sugar over the top, so the middle and bottom of my dozen wasn't sweetened. I asked for extra powdered sugar the last time I went, and it was perfect to dip the rest of the beignets in. This place seems to always be crowded, but I usually go pretty early in the morning so it makes sense I guess! Parking can be difficult because it is in a plaza with many other businesses. BTW, there is a $12 minimum charge for credit cards. I thought it was ok to use it regardless since I didn't see signs posted anywhere.. Was slightly annoyed when they told me this and I had no cash, but I just ordered another dozen (good excuse for more sweets!!!). read more

Lily's Bakery - Our first time getting beignets at Lily's bakery! YUMMY DEFINITELY RECOMMEND - Bakeries Near Me - Westminster, California

I stop by when I'm in town to pick up a box or two of beignets as gifts for my family n friends. They are so yummy. We enjoy every bite. Sometimes I grab cafe sua da or a drink like the honeydew juice, which my mom is in love with. There's plenty of patio seating but it's more divey than hipster. People like hanging here all day, I noticed. Order, pay n pick up at counter. The ladies who work here are usually friendly n efficient. I never have to wait more than a few minutes. read more

The cakes are great! Soft and fluffy with a touch of simple designs. Should they make the decorations more intricate I can see it be a great cake for all occasions even for quinzcenieras or, dare I say, weddings. Fresh beignets and petit desserts are so good. The price is a bit high but worth it. The outside is constantly squatted with gom's who stare you down with laser beam eyes while smoking their cigarettes that you can smell inside. Yum read more

I literally always crave their barbecue chicken sandwich. It's so delicious. if you don't know what to order here get that and fruit tart

Coffee is amazing it will put a pep in your step and have you buzzing around all day

Perfect for on the go jobs. It's hard to find a healthy meal with won't break the bank. I pull up and there are prepackaged sandwiches and drinks ready to go. Still need to come back for a sit down eating. Looking forward to it. read more

Lily's fruit cakes have gotten so bad that I cannot believe it. I can't even finish it after just one bite. I just bought an 8" fruit cake on Sunday 12/17/23 for 37$ but nothing was good about it. I ended up apologizing to the birthday person I bought the cake for. I felt so embarrassed and what a waste of money! I don't know what corners Lily's bakery tried to cut but their fruit cakes definitely don't taste the same as they used to any more. I don't know why they changed the ingredients, but their quality is no longer there to ever warrant another purchase. All the fruits they used except strawberries and kiwis were canned fruits. Even the real fruits didn't taste good. I used to love the crunchy crust inside the cake, but it is not what it used to be either. It tasted harder and drier than before and it has no taste whatsoever. The spongy part of the cake is also tasteless. The frosting tastes oilier than before too. All in all, this is the last time I will ever buy from Lily's bakery! For years I have always bought from them. It was already changing to bad a few years back, but it is getting worse now. Even the cream they used to write the Happy Birthday wish looked all wrinkly by the next morning when we took pictures of the cake! No more Lily's bakery for me, ever! read more

Browsing through my friends' activity feed I came across Lily's Bakery and decided on my way back to LA that I would stop by and pick up some ice coffee & beignets as I've never heard or had them before. Open at 6am, I got there around 7 and Lily's Bakery was already filled with the "usuals" outside drinking coffee & talking nonsense. I came in pretty quick and easy. The beignets were already in a box, and the ice coffee was already good to go. When I took a bite into the beignets, they tasted like a fluffy/donut version of a funnel cake. Not overly too sweet, but had a good chew to it. Dipped with the melted vanilla dipping sauce, and the beignets became a pretty nice treat with my ice coffee. I wouldn't crave for them, like say Porto's Bakery or Cream Pan, but they aren't a bad item to get if you are around the area and are looking for something sweet. The bakery has other goods such as cakes & pastries as well. For $3.50 for a dozen, and a large ice coffee at around $2.00, not a bad start to my morning commute. read more

This bakery smells amazing. They have a bunch of different items to choose from and the smell of fresh beignets just makes you want to purchase everything. I got the flan and avocado gelatin cake and it was great. They through in some fresh beignets for free and a cake slicer. Definitely going back. read more

Was told that the iced hazelnut coffee here was to die for so I had to make a trip out to the OC to check it out. Coffee is like your traditional vietnamese ice coffee with hazelnut syrup good but not great. Min $12 to be able to use your CC. read more

Good coffee. I usually ask them to hold the cream. I ordered banh mi thịt and not combination, which I think is better option. Could be better with the banh mi but at least it is better than average for banh mi thịt read more

I've been coming to Lily's Bakery for years, but never stopped to write a review. That changes today. My husband and I stopped in late, about 30 minutes till closing. You wouldn't know the day was almost over by the array of delicious goodies and the warm smiles of everyone working. We were lucky enough to meet Lily herself, who showed us her fruit tart (decadent), her luscious cream puff and her upcoming Valentine's Day butter heart cookies (my mouth is watering just writing about them). As always, everything at Lily's is delicious and beautifully crafted. Little baked jewels. If you come for anything, try her coconut cakes. They're buttery, pillowy and fragrant and one of our all time favorite desserts (and breakfasts) ever. This place is busy in the morning, but that's the time to come and get a fresh mini banh mi and hot coffee! read more

We saw this on the counter and the boss (I'm assuming) gave us some warm ones which tasted really good. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, unfortunately, I'm just a passerby, if not, I wouldn't mind coming here more often. The boss also gave us a sample for her beignets and it tasted really good. They were all very friendly even though I'm not Vietnamese. read more

We went there on a Saturday afternoon anticipating yummy beignets. Well, they were hard & greasy and should've been tossed - not sold. Upon eating two, requested for new ones. They returned the box to us and we ate a delicious fresh beignet so we left and drove away. This is where the 1 star review comes into play. They only made 3 fresh beignets and returned the stale, cold and non-caloric worthy ones. So, out of one dozen beignets, only 3 were good. But the bad business move is what left the worst taste. I guess this business feels it's worthwhile to save a few beignets for a 1 star yelp review. My friend wasted $8 for 3 edible beignets. I hope everyone who reads this will only accept fresh beignets - the way it is suppose to be. read more

I had a large birthday cake made for my aunts 50th birthday last night. it was pricy but SO worth it. the cake was beautiful, tasty, and amazed everyone at the party! the design was so intricate and well thought out. everyone asked where we got the cake from. the service we received was also awesome. it wasn't very busy when I went, and everyone was so friendly. they gave us a few pieces of things to try as samples, and it felt like I was chatting with an old friend as we discussed the design of the cake. I definitely left this place with a big smile on my face. also, the beignets are delicious, especially when they come out fresh. their vietnamese coffee is also one of my favorites that I've had anywhere. not too sweet and very aromatic! I'll certainly be back in the future for any specialty cake orders! read more

Durian birthday cake not good, not even one cup durian in the cake and too dry, will not come back ever

The quality of the cake here is not worth the nasty passive-aggressive attitude of the owner. We came in to buy a cake for my mom for her birthday. My mom was trying ask if the fruit filling was made of real fruit chunks or just fruit flavored cream. My mom is elderly with some cognitive decline and was not very eloquent in her questioning. Her question was a little confusing. Instead of asking my mom to clarify what she meant, the owner replied, "What, you've never bought a cake before?" REALLY?? My mom's question warranted that nasty response? Or did your husband abandon you and leave you so bitter against the world? There are way too many amazing bakeries in the Bolsa/Little Saigon area to waste your time here and get belittled by such a disrespectful store owner. Go down two blocks on Bolsa Ave to Givral. The owner there is the exact opposite of what you'd find here. The other owner is the sweetest and most genuinely courteous baker you'd find. And Givral cakes are much better quality than here anyway. read more

I got fresh fruit cake. It was dried and Icing had bad taste. Trash the whole cake.

I am really disappointed with Lily's bakery. This is the third time I have received the wrong cake from them. I've specifically asked for chocolate cake. Then I sliced the cake. It's a white cake I would give them 0 stars if I could. They are terrible, and their customer service is horrible!! It would be nice if they pay attention to what their customers are asking. No more chances!! read more

Wanted to try their Banh Mi Sandwiches, but ended up ordering 2 orders of Bo Kho after reading the yelp reviews. The iced tea I ordered was good. Lady added a couple free beignets to our order. The Bo Kho was average, but one of the pieces of tendon was inedible. It was hard and undercooked. The baguette was softer and didn't have the crust baguettes are known for. Decided not to come back to try their sandwiches. You can't have a good sandwich if the bread isn't right. read more
